55" led toshiba on sale at menards for 867.00

[pOrk]

Killer tv for the money, 1199 - 200 mail in rebate. Unadvertised deal, menards on hwy q in the falls

[05caddyext]

I would never buy a tv from menards no matter how good of a deal it seems. Probably a version made just for them, a cheaper version of what youd see at an electronics store. And what do you do a year from now when you need warranty work? Menards gonna tell you to suck it.

Its the exact same model number as sold EVERYWHERE else, and if you purchase with a Visa credit card its a 2 year warranty from Visa. Thanks for your input on the matter anyhow :thumbsup

really? Your post is chalked full of fail.

As apposed to buying a tv from any other store?

[05caddyext]

You honestly think that menards is going to stand behind a tv that they sold you? They are a building materials and home improvement store, they don't specialize in electronics. And companies definetly make different versions of their products for different stores. So how is it full of fail?

[Yooformula]

I think he means that if you buy it from say best buy, you can also purchase a 4 yr warranty and not have to hassle with the manufacturer warranty. Iirc, menards doesnt offer extended warranties for electronics that they sometimes carry.

[05caddyext]

What Visa card to you use? In order for the manufacturers warranty to be extended by most Visa cards you need to send your card company an original receipt within a certain period of time after the purchase date. Also, like I said, good luck with Menards getting you service on a tv, they don't specialize in electronics. I would rather spend the extra 200 and get it from a store I know will take care of me. Also for that extra 200 most stores like best buy will bring the tv to your house, hook it up for you, and calibrate it. But again im full of fail so yeah.

Where can you get this TV for 200 more? Please do share :thumbsup

And one last crappy thing about menards rebates. They come to you as a check that can only use at menards. For someone like you its fine, because you spend a lot of money there, but for lots of other people it would be useless. So the tv they have on sale for $999 is the one that Best Buy sells for $1999? If so I'd go to Best Buy or American and get them to match that price for you. American has a price match guarantee, not sure about Best Buy's matching policy.

[Yooformula]

actually just called them and they do offer warranties with in home service and an additional 11% rebate this week. so that is a good deal and this location said they are going to start carrying them again full time! although the rebates are all in merchandise credit.

[05caddyext]

so they are offering the $200 rebate and an additional 11% on top of that yet?

[pOrk]

Just found this out it looks to be correct. Menards also has an additional 11% Rebate for anything purchased between Jan 1 - 8th, and that is on top of the $200 rebate on the TV. That bumps the price down to $867.11

Yep , I was just there a couple hours ago and the 11 percent deal is pretty damn cool !

I found a Mr. Heater I was wanting at the regular price for WAY less than anywhere else and now with the 11 percent off it the deal is totally awesome !

This!!!

I hate Menards for simply this reason, I admit its a great price, but if you don't need 200 bucks worth of other stuff from menards it is a total joke.

[pOrk]

I own a house, I will need much more then 200 worth of stuff from menards in the long run. And with this additional 11%, I'll be getting 330 bucks in menards bucks back :thumbsup I'll use that for a new front door, or lumber, or roofing materials, or deck materials, or lawn care tools, etc etc etc :thumbsup

[1320PNY]

Sounds like Menards tickles Porks nutsack when he leaves too. :rolf As far as the OP, this is a great deal for any homeowner that is looking for a decent large LED tv. Good find.

[Nix]

Sounds like Menards tickles Porks nutsack when he leaves too. :rolf As far as the OP, this is a great deal for any homeowner that is looking for a decent large LCD tv. Good find.

Is is a LED or LCD?

If it is a LED than that is a great deal for sure.

[jbiscuit]

I believe he said it's LED. Buying and LCD would be dumb since the technology is going towards LED. Plus the energy savings.

[pOrk]

Uh, ok?

Its an LED tv, and for 867 bucks I'd say its pretty cheap :thumbsup

[tommyt5078]

Your all over the internet on this one A, like slick deals, hope you get one if you want one, I don't need a new TV, but this looks to be a GREAT deal!!!!!!

I totally hear you, I know you will use that money to your advantage. I just don't own a home at this point so to me it seems like a shady trick to force you to spend the rebate money with them anyway. Although I guess its not much different than Colders dollar matching games with spend this much on a mattress and get double to buy more gimmick.

[Holeshot]

Tom now is the time to buy a house. If you can get approved the market is endless. First thing about owning a home is making Menards your second home !

[Ricky Bobby]

i hate menards i go to lowes or home depot for my own reasons :rolf

[Yooformula]

i hate menards i go to lowes or home depot for my own reasons :rolf

i hate lowes and menards BUT menards has the cheaper prices and its close. lowes just has idiots working there that dont know their asses from their elbows and their prices SUCK. i usually try to stick to hd, but they are too far away for me.

Lucky bastard that thing looks great!! Whats the HZ on it?

[pOrk]

120 hz, has built in Net TV too so make sure those that buy it set it up to connect to wireless router.

[MoCkiN U]

Levin would find a way to make his way into getting attention in the picture wouldnt he.

congrats brotha!!

[Yooformula]

that additional 11% is on everything you buy for the entire week too btw!

[michelle]

that additional 11% is on everything you buy for the entire week too btw!

Yep! I stopped in to pick up a few things and was told I get the 11% rebate on the random things I bought.

Seem to stop at Menards every week, so I don't mind the "merchandise credit".

[0TransAm0]

Do they have 0% for menards card users? Or new card holders? I do not have a menards card but would consider getting one just for this deal...

[05caddyext]

The Menards in Johnson Creek has this tv also if anyone is looking for it. They had a lot of them, the display wasn't working, said it was broke. Nice.

[DynoTom]

Looks good Pork ! I have to say that Menards store credits they give as rebates don't bother me at all ....I can walk around that place and in a few minutes spend any rebate money I get there.....I WILL be spending more there in the next couple days now that they have the 11 percent rebate thing going....

[Josepy]

wow looks good. you have the model number for this TV? Boss wants 2 of them and i want 1.

[pOrk]

Yes sir: Toshiba - 55UX600U

[Josepy]

Yes sir: Toshiba - 55UX600U

Thanks. Pretty sure the boss will be buying 2 of them. Think I am going to pass for now. My 52inch still works good. Would be nice to ditch the DLP but it works.

[0TransAm0]

I'm getting one. My bro is the yard manager at the hwy 100 store and i can get an additional 10% off so that's a total of 23% off and the $200 rebate.

[pOrk]

^ That is a sweet deal, have your brother say hi to Eric Chmela for me, from Eric Fowler.

[PureSound15]

I think I'm going to go pick one of these up. Thanks for the heads up!

[Josepy]

West bend has none. They said they have not had any since black friday.

[05caddyext]

Try the huge one in Waukesha, they had about 20 this past weekend when I stopped by there.

[Josepy]

TV's are discontinued. That's why there giving the deal. Apparently there is 1 at the Milwaukee store. More than likely the display.

waukesha has none.

[Nix]

Try Johnson Creek?

[Josepy]

Call menards ahead I think the falls is sold out but the menards in johnson creek has like 5 left last I checked

Johnson Creek is all out too.

[PureSound15]

Can't find them anywhere

[05caddyext]

You can special order one, but you won't get the additional 11% rebate. Still get the $200 rebate however.

[Josepy]

no you can't. there discontinued

[05caddyext]

Um yes you can. Call any menards in the area. You can order them. They have over 40 left in their regional warehouse. The manona store guy was able to check if they had any, checked all other stores in the state, and said his distribution center showed over 40 left, all in real time. So if you want one, order it, if the store doesn't offer the option, speak to the manager.

yeah 3 stores i talked to said they could not get them

[05caddyext]

Call the menona store. Here is the # when you get the menu press 19. Guy I talked to about an hour ago said he could order them. He definetly knew what he was talking about, and had real time information in front of him.

608-221-9100. He said he could order it for sure, just said the 11% wouldn't qualify also.

What if you paid for it now?

[05caddyext]

according to the guy on the phone, it wouldn't qualify for the 11% because he said it was something they normally carried, but were out of, so the 11% doesn't qualify. Its in the fine print on the ad.

[awsomeears]

I can just see ( not that I wish it ) a few months down the road these TV's burning up and what not.............

[spooln30]

Menards also had a 22" LED TV on their black Friday sale for $99. With a $100 rebate but in store rebate. My friend bought two of them and they are a off brand but the picture is really good. Can't beat $100 for a LED tv. I don't see a problem buying electronics from Menards even if the rebate is in store. If you own a home you will eventually need something from a home improvement store. I bought my tool box from them and it's kick ass.

Lol that makes a lot of sense, not. That's what warrantys are for, that and toshiba is not exactly a throw away brand. My projector is toshiba, almost 6 years old and works perfect
